"Thanks, it has pockets!".

Just take a look at the selection below. Just note that prices and stock availability may change! But pockets? Pockets are forever.

Ines de la Fressange Flannel Belted Long Sleeve Dress (P1,490)

This flannel dress in royal blue or sleek black keep things minimal in a soft and warm fabric forgiving enough to wear to your freezing office, all the malls, or work meetings. Plus, for a more casual look, it even comes in a low-key checkered print. And yes, you can also wear it as an outer layer when you visit places with four seasons.Â

U Long Sleeve Shirt Dress (P1,490 from P2,490)
Think shirt dress, but so much better. This frock is made of a sturdy but comfy crisp cotton fabric, rounded out by a glossy sheen for extra oomph in terms of visuals. The oversized cut gives it a more interesting edge that takes it from your usual button-up shirt dress to a much smarter option. And yes, you can wear it as outer layer, too.

Printed V Neck 3/4 Sleeve Flare Dress (P1,990)
Get festive with this frock. A classic silhouette gets a fun upgrade with this floral print that comes in Christmas-appropriate but not overt green and a sweet light pink on black, too; both can be worn whether it's the holidays or not. The silky fabric comes loose enough that you can wear it over your outfit, or tie back the waist ribbons for a snugger fit.Â

Smooth Cotton Tiered Mini Dress (P790)
Get on the babydoll trend with this adorable frock. Peep that combination of softly puffing sleeves and a tiered skirt! We love how it keeps things simple with the block colors in pastel shades: baby pink and blue, and even a black iteration if you want to keep things more low-key. Â

Cop this ultra breezy option for a midday garden brunch. Or really, any event outdoors in the Philippines' tropical heat.
